At the risk of sounding irritatingly cheerleaderesque, this month I had a notion to devote my few hundred words of spout-off space to the public’s receptiveness to independent moviemaking in this country. There is just no question that independent moviemaking in America is entering a Golden Age of sorts, and that the public, the general moviegoing and TV-watching audiences, are responsible for it. Maybe it’s because more viewers today are moviemakers themselves.
